Beagle rescues & shelters in Xenia, OH

2 organizations in Xenia that take in and rehome beagles, hounds, and other dogs. Always call ahead to confirm current beagle availability.

Xenia's two listed organizations—Greene County Animal Control and Francis Kennels—both maintain solid, searchable websites, which means you can check availability and apply online without a lot of back-and-forth. It's a small roster for a town of 25,500, so don't expect a beagle to always be sitting in the kennel waiting for you. That said, both groups take in hounds regularly, and a quick phone call will tell you what's actually there today. Start here, then be ready to expand into the surrounding towns if Xenia's immediate options run quiet.
